The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced a final rule that provided a framework for the federal agency's phased enforcement of REAL ID requirements.
Federal agencies, including the TSA, will begin REAL ID enforcement on the deadline, which is May 7, 2025. Starting that day, only state-issued driver’s licenses and identification cards that meet the security requirements established by the REAL ID Act will be permitted for official purposes, including boarding commercial aircraft.
